Recently I saw one of the kids at my son’s school eating an ice cream bar. Well, it was called an “ice cream bar”. <\/p>\n

Then I looked at the ingredients.<\/p>\n

  • nonfat milk and milkfat<\/li>\n
  • water<\/li>\n
  • sugar<\/li>\n
  • corn syrup<\/li>\n
  • whey<\/li>\n
  • citric acid<\/li>\n
  • stabiliser (mono & diglycerides, guar gum, polysorbate 80, xanthan gum and and carob bean gum<\/li>\n
  • artificial flavour<\/li>\n
  • artificial colour (red #40, yellow #5, blue #1)<\/li>\n

    I read these ingredients with increasing horror. WHAT is this stuff? It sure as heck doesn’t sound like ice cream! I immediately searched for an easy ice cream recipe. Compare the above with this ice cream recipe:<\/p>\n

  • 1.75 cups heavy cream<\/li>\n
  • 1.25 cup whole milk<\/li>\n
  • 0.75 cup sugar<\/li>\n
  • 1\/8th teaspoon salt<\/li>\n
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract or 1 vanilla bean split in half <\/li>\n

    Which would you<\/strong> rather feed your child? I know which one I prefer. Hop on over to Barefeet in the Kitchen for the full ice cream recipe<\/a>. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
